Day 1 Oswego to Lake Oneida in the Canal
We left Oswego today about 10am, and completed about 9 locks, our average speed is about 6 knots. We stopped again at one of our favourite spots for ice cream. Bridge House Brats at Oswego Lock 1, Phoenix NY. We then spent the evening at the mouth of the Oneida river Erie Canal Lock 23. This is a state park, the kids enjoyed some fishing and and BBQ later in the evening. You can stop at all the locks and there is no additional charge. A 10 day lock pass is $37,50 for boats under 40 feet, and $50 for boats up to 50 feet.
